That is bullshit. I've used rubber domes louder than Brown switches. People need to get over themselves. You get some guy complaining about brown switches in your office. Meanwhile, I use a Model M and nobody gives a shit.

You should have brought in a Beamspring keyboard with the solenoid on.

Keyboard noise complaints are complete bullshit.

if you're that worried about as user, buy a Matias Quiet Click. It's quieter than a rubber dome keyboard.
